What is accurate about a boiler (hot water system) in a home?

It usually has a heat exchanger and burner, except for systems using electricity.
It typically works without the need for radiators.
It must have a pump to circulate water through the whole system.
It heats water to 212 degrees Fahrenheit, which is then distributed throughout the building.

The correct answer is: It usually has a heat exchanger and burner, except for systems using electricity.

The correct answer is A because a boiler system, which is a hot water heating system, typically consists of a heat exchanger and a burner to heat the water before circulating it throughout the building. In the case of electric boiler systems, they may not have a separate heat exchanger and burner since the heating element directly heats the water. This distinguishes it from other heating systems like furnaces. Option B is incorrect as boilers usually require radiators or other means to distribute the heat throughout a building. Option C is incorrect because while some systems may have pumps to help circulate water, it is not a requirement for all boiler systems. Option D is incorrect as boilers do not heat water to the boiling point of 212 degrees Fahrenheit; they typically heat water to around 140-180 degrees Fahrenheit for distribution.
